Exterior Waterproofing – A More Comprehensive Approach to Basement Waterproofing



Introduction

When it comes to wet basements, interior waterproofing can only do so much because the root cause of the problem is usually outside of the house. Thus, according to one of the leading construction chemicals manufacturers in India which specialize in basement waterproofing products, and also provide waterproofing solutions in Delhi, complete waterproofing requires the homeowner to look outside the walls of their home.

What Does Exterior Waterproofing Involve?


Exterior waterproofing is typically a much larger undertaking than the simple sealing process we use on the inside. It is a good idea to consult a professional when considering exterior waterproofing methods. The construction chemicals company mentioned above can provide waterproofing contractors in Delhi.

Exterior waterproofing typically requires the excavation of the soil surrounding the foundation of the home. This can be a labour-intensive process, requiring heavy tools and machinery. Once all the soil around the foundation has been removed, a waterproof sealant can be applied to the exterior walls. This sealant is a typically a polymer base, which should last for the life of the building. Ideally, this exterior waterproofing process should occur during construction.


Gutter systems (or spouts that direct rainwater away from the foundation of your home), play an important role in exterior waterproofing, as clogged gutters or gutters that drain to close to your foundation will deposit water along the base of your home, exactly where you do not want it to be. Thus, it is important to keep gutters free from obstruction and in proper working condition before exterior waterproofing.

Nitrogen Use in Aerosols

Nitrogen Use in Aerosols                     Introduction An aerosol is any such substance enclosed under pressure and released as a fine spray by the means of a propellant gas. Common examples of aerosol products include deodorant sprays, pesticide sprays, hair sprays, shaving foams and the like. Components of an Aerosol An aerosol formulation mainly consists of two components, namely: (1 the product concentrate, and 2) the propellant. The product concentrate is the actual product, the active ingredient in the aerosol, combined with other additional ingredients and co-solvents which are there to make a stable and efficacious product. The product concentrate can be a solution, suspension, emulsion, semisolid or powder. The propellant is the gas which provides the force to expel the product concentrate from the container and is also responsible for the delivery of the formulation in the proper form (i.e. spray...

Nitrogen Application in Nylon Manufacture

Nitrogen Application in Nylon Manufacture Introduction Nylon is actually a family of synthetic polymers, which can be processed into fibers, films or shapes. It is because of this thermoplastic’s silky property that made it the world’s first commercially successful synthetic thermoplastic polymer. Major uses of nylon include, but are not limited to fabrics, cookware and plastic fasteners and machine parts. Out of these, their application in manufacturing fabrics is the largest. Nylon fibers are woven together to form a silky, lightweight fabric. The reason for the popularity of this fabric is that it is resistant to abrasion, is a quite strong synthetic fiber, resists mildew, available readily and is relatively cheap. Application of Nitrogen in Nylon Manufacture Large-scale nylon manufacturers usually have nitrogen generators or nitrogen plants available on their premises, as nitrogen is an integral part of the production of various types of nylon. Nylon is form...

Application of Oxygen in the Manufacture of Epoxyethane (Engine Coolant/Antifreeze)

Application of Oxygen in the Manufacture of Epoxyethane (Engine Coolant/Antifreeze)                       Introduction Epoxyethane or ethylene oxide (C ₂ H ₄ O), is a colorless gas at room temperature. It is very reactive and is used as an important intermediary in the manufacture of many useful chemicals. But the main usage or application of Epoxyethane is as the main constituent of engine coolants or antifreeze in cars. It is also used to produce other engine coolants/antifreeze like ethylene glycol. What Does An Engine Coolant/Antifreeze Do? Car engines create a great deal of energy by burning petrol or diesel. Some of this energy is used to move the vehicle forward (around one third), the other two-thirds of the energy produced is converted to heat. Around half of this heat goes out of the exhaust, whilst the remaining heat remains inside the engine block. Car engines need a way of cooling down else t...
